Recently, the use of hyaluronic acid has become popular as a natural method to make aesthetic touch-ups in different parts of the body. From reshaping the nose, filling wrinkles to rejuvenate the face or even to give more volume to the lips, these are some of the procedures that are in trend among patients.
Regardless of how easy the treatment may seem, there is always the possibility that something may not go as it should. Such is the case of this English girl, who in her attempt to remove the hyaluronic acid from her lips ended up hospitalized.
Ruby Frais is a 22-year-old girl who had to be hospitalized in an emergency because she had a serious allergy after going to a beauty center to have the hyaluronic acid filler removed from her lips.
The girl had been retouching her lips for some time to give them more volume, until one day she decided that she no longer wanted to do it and went to the place to withdraw the treatment, not knowing the consequences it would bring.
Everything seemed to be in order, until suddenly he began to feel that his face was swollen and his upper lip was huge. Ruby was having an allergic reaction to the chemical solvents in the filler.
After being treated in a hospital emergency room, the girl wanted to tell her experience in a Tiktok video, in order to raise awareness among others based on what she experienced during this process.
However, users of the platform, instead of taking Ruby’s advice into account, joked and began to compare it to the Homer Simpson cartoon. While others said it resembled a squirrel and some more, Perry the platypus from Phineas and Ferb.
The recording of the girl registered almost 500 thousand reproductions in a single day and to date it has more than one million views.

They put the solvent for the lip filler on me… and I ended up in the hospital.
Despite the ridicule that the girl received in the comments, there were also those who commented that allergic reactions can happen to anyone and for different reasons.
The next day, Ruby posted a recording showing her face deflated and fully recovered.

The doctors assure that he was lucky, since a bad procedure like the one he experienced could have disfigured his face.
